Left Behind:
World War III

EZ and I spent a couple of days in Toronto on the set of the newest Left Behind movie. Kirk is very excited about this movie and its evangelistic potential. While we were there I was able to witness to the "antichrist," as well as a number of other members of the cast. Please pray for them. (EZ is pictured left with Gordon Currie who plays "Nicolae Carpathia" in Left Behind.)

Share the Exhilaration!

Have you ever wanted to present the principles of Biblical evangelism to your pastor, youth group leader or a Christian friend? The "Exhilarate!" package is designed for that very purpose. It contains “Hell’s Best Kept Secret” and “True and False Conversion” on CD and the book, The Way of the Master.

The glossy full-color box opens up like a book when you un-tuck the tab from the back. Inside on the left, in specially cut slots, you have the two CDs, and the book is fitted into a recessed nook on the right. The artwork on the CDs has been re-vamped to match the graphic on the front of the box, and the back of the box incorporates the best endorsements the teaching has ever received.

All together, this makes a very classy gift that should make a great impression on whomever you decide to give it to. $20 each.

Ridiculed for Witnessing

I was encouraged recently when I received a phone call from a woman who lives in Australia. She told me that 20 years earlier, she had been running along a beach in New Zealand when I ran alongside her and witnessed to her. She said that she ridiculed me, but shortly afterwards was soundly saved. Since then, she has led half of her family to Christ, including her own father on his deathbed. And now she and her husband travel together and preach the gospel.

Never be discouraged. Even if you are stoned to death for the sake of Christ, God may use your words to speak to someone who is holding the clothes of those who sent you to Heaven. There's no such thing as failure, when you are faithful.

Fruit and Nut

Kirk and I spoke at a Worldview Weekend seminar in which we took a number of folks out to preach open air. It rained, so the organizer (Brannon Howse) said that a member of the hosting church owned a supermarket. He led us into the fruit and nut section and we had the surreal experience of preaching "open air" on a soap box in a huge supermarket. We have another Worldview Weekend coming up in Branson (MO) at the end of April. See the schedule of events at the bottom of the newsletter for more information.

New & Improved Millions

Our Million Dollar Bill has gotten a complete overhaul. The graphics have been greatly improved on both sides, plus now it even has a touch of various colors (just like the latest genuine bills). The gospel message is still subtle, but much easier to read due to darker text and a cleaner font. Best of all, the gospel message is much more thorough. And because it's so much longer than the one on the originals, it circles the outer edge of the back of the bill twice before concluding. Reaction to these is even better.

Down Under Agents

We have established Living Waters Publications down-under. Ben and Melissa Day are our zealous agents (graduates of the Evangelism Boot Camp). They recently hosted a seminar in New Zealand and were delighted with the turnout (many more seminars are planned). See www.livingwatersnewzealand.com for details. While you are there, check out the new Australia and New Zealand million dollar bill tract available for sale on their site.

What Hollywood Believes

“I’ve seen the results of this CD message after I’ve given away this to people. Praise God!” Steve M., Maryland.

Please take advantage of the What Hollywood Believes CD. It is low cost, answers a number of the questions and objections of celebrities, and has a very clear gospel message.

We also received this encouragment about the What Hollywood Believes book: "I just wanted to let [you] know that my father was converted reading What Hollywood Believes . . . I will pray for you and your family daily, as well as Kirk and his family, Mark and EZ and all your friends and fellow laborers. May God truly bless His great work in you. -- Ty and Barb."

Please do pray for our staff. Seven (out of ten) of the ministry staff’s wives have been struck in recent months with very serious health problems -- from breast cancer, to panic attacks, to miscarriages, to lock jaw, and arthritis. The wives’ names are: Sue, Becky, Sarah, Chelsea, Kim, Yasmine, Laura, Rachel, Carol, and Anna. Thank you.

By the way, Charisma magazine kindly asked me to write an article on faith in Hollywood. It is in their April edition: http://www.charismamag.com/.

Ex-Atheist Hooked on Coins
Sent in by Darin S.

This is the second package of Ten Commandments coins I've ordered from you. I really like them. A lot of tracts, people will just look at and put back down -- but a nice big shiny coin attracts attention the way paper tracts just don't. It's a great feeling being able to leave them around in places like fast food restaurants, restrooms, and store counters. It really feels like I'm accomplishing something for God. It's like throwing out seeds. If just one of them moves someone even a little closer to salvation in Christ, it was more than worth the price of the whole bag. (I was an atheist for most of my life.) -- Sincerely, Darin S.

Free--take one
Sent in by Sean S.

I work in a call center and I don't have a lot of time off the phone to actually witness to co-workers. So, I have put up a sign that says "Free--take one," and I leave your tracts in it. I had heard people say that non-believers would ask for more of your tracts but never had it happen to me until yesterday. A person I didn't even know came and was looking through the tracts for a new one. I was able to give her the test your reading skills. Thanks again, I love your ministry and can't thank you enough.
